Here Come the Littles

In the quiet outskirts of a bustling town, a young boy named Henry finds his world turned upside‑down when his parents disappear on an archaeological expedition in Africa. Sent to live under the watchful eye of Uncle Augustus, the sprawling family home feels more like a waiting room for an inevitable change, its future hanging in the balance as whispers of development stir in the air. The housekeeper, Mrs. Evans, offers a comforting presence, but the looming presence of a strict guardian casts a shadow over Henry’s newfound routine.

Behind the plaster and woodwork, however, another society thrives in secret. Tiny, elf‑like beings called the Littles have made the walls their home, where Grandpa Little watches over the mischievous yet endearing siblings Tom and Lucy. Their world is a blend of wonder and resourcefulness, populated by clever inventions, secret passages, and even a wary cat whose initial hostility softens under their gentle care. The contrast between the human expanse and the diminutive realm creates a whimsical, almost magical atmosphere that pulses through every creak of the old house.

As Henry begins to sense that the walls are more alive than he ever imagined, a tentative friendship forms between him and the Littles. Their shared curiosity and courage spark a quiet alliance, hinting at a deeper connection that bridges the gap between size and age. Together, they explore the mysteries of the house, discovering that bravery can come in the smallest packages.

Yet the peace of the home is fragile. Uncle Augustus harbors ambitions that could reshape the very foundation of the property, threatening to replace the cherished dwelling with something entirely different. The stage is set for a gentle clash of worlds—human and tiny—where ingenuity, compassion, and a touch of daring may be the only things standing between the beloved house and an uncertain future.
